The Blue Jays administration must feel so stupid with Teoscar Hernandez celebrating during this Blue Jays “window to win.” After the Yankees blew that five run lead in the top of the fifth, I wanted LA to win so badly. New York had no business winning this game. They didn’t deserve it.

The Yankees choke, now is the time for Rogers to act. If Shatkins are still around when spring training starts, the Jays are doomed.
No ring for Garrit Stanton.

Someone called it in 6 but it happened in 5. Congratulations to the Dodgers. They did it with 3 of their starting pitchers on injured reserve and a hurt Ohtani after game 2. Favourites for next season.
Incredible. And before that, an Aaron Judge blooper (his first of the year) and Volpe errant throw to third.
Someone named Will Smith has won the World Series five consecutive years.
Dodgers catcher Will Smith in 2020.
Left handed reliever Will Smith with the Braves in 2021, with the Astros in 2022 and Rangers in 2023.
Dodgers catcher again this year.
The odds?

Judge is a career .205 hitter in the post-season now. That's with 220 AB's, so that not a small sample size.
He'll be 33 in April...He's signed at 40 million a season until 2031...I'd consider trading him and retaining Soto. Then going after Vladdy.
Wonder what they could get for him and that contract...I get the feeling he's going to finish like Albert Pujols did except a few years earlier.
Baseball contracts are simply the most ridiculous in all sports. No team will take Judge. No way.
2024 Dodgers-Yankees World Series brought in big TV audience numbers
The World Series matchup between teams from the country's two biggest TV markets brought in big ratings.

Huge increase in ratings over 2023. But I thought would have been much higher considering the star power on display.
"The games averaged 15.18 million viewers each, the highest since the Dodgers played the Houston Astros in 2017. The average for that seven-game series was 18.9 million. This year's deciding Game 5 brought in 18.6 million viewers. That was the most for a single game since 2019, when the Nationals beat the Astros in Game 7."
If the series had been more competitive I'm pretty sure the ratings would have increased significantly. A game 7 could have easily drawn 25-30M.2024 Dodgers-Yankees World Series brought in big TV audience numbers

I wonder if the viewership increased for games 6 and 7 of LA/Houston in 2017.
